Conquest

    Chapter 398 [The world is me]

    When it comes to the Emperor Odin, everyone in the Chamber has no voice.

    Phillips also closed his mouth and didn't make any more sense.

    IndeedNo matter who it is, there is no doubt about the most legendary powerhouse in the human world that is far away from Odin. Everyone knows that the Emperor Odin is a big man. Everyone knows that such a person is absolutely impossible to lack "ambition". Kind of things.

    Rheinhardt sinks into the water and continues: "…This is exactly what I am worried about. Before that, I am afraid that the Odin people themselves are not aware of such facts. Even the Odin people themselves have never thought of taking the opportunity to completely ruin this huge empire in the South. Their previous plans may have occupied several counties. Land, then take the opportunity to fish for benefits. As for the future, it is better to stand firm and natural. Even if the station is unstable, you will simply withdraw Odin. Don’t leave the land. Anyway, you have already got enough loot. This has been a war with the Odin people for a hundred years. Are you coming over like this? But this time…Different! ”

    Having said that, Rheinhardt raised his eyelids and glanced at Shaar sitting in front.

    Shaar hasn't made a sound, softly leaning against the chair, posing a little lazy, a look of powerlessness, without the former scorpion and heroic spirit, looks like the same beach mud, and seems to be People took the same bones.

    Even when listening to Rheinhardt’s speech, Shaar’s expression was obviously a little indifferent, and even his eyes were a little drifting away – this guy seemed to be distracted.

    Rheinhardt frowned and stared at Shaar and continued: "I even made a careful plan. If I were Odin's Commander-in-Chief, I am afraid I will not miss this opportunity! The Byzantine empire is on the verge of collapse, the civil strife is flourishing, and the elite army of the empire is either defeated and destroyed, and the remaining hundreds of thousands of elites are slain at Osgiliath. Throughout history, the country of the Byzantine Empire has never fallen to this point! If you must find a chance to completely ruin Byzantine, then this time is undoubtedly the best time in thousands of years! The Odin did not recognize this before, and we subconsciously ignored this – but with Manninger destroying the Corsican military region and successfully annexing it…The weakness of the Byzantine Empire has been thoroughly exposed to the eyes of the Odin people! I can assure you that if the rebel coalition of the red round table can't make a tough reaction, then the Odin will be insatiable! But things have happened for so many days, and the rebel alliance still has not made any military reaction…I am sure that these guys are confused inside and have not reached a unified idea! They are not united, and they have different positions…This is almost equivalent to tearing up the last layer of fig leaf, and thoroughly exposing the weakness of one side to the Odin! The Odin people will immediately notice that this 'red round table', which seems to have hundreds of thousands of soldiers, is so loose, it is simply a loose sand, and each of them is not afraid of it! Then the result is obvious: the empire's Royal Family Group has not had enough power, and the other party's rebels seem to have no courage to be openly hostile to the Odin, then…Who is going to resist the Odin people? At this time, if Emperor Odin has not reacted yet, then he is not worthy of being the emperor of the Odin Empire! I can even conclude that the other two Odin invading regiments will act immediately! Even if their military operations are going well, at the latest next spring, there will be a large number of reinforcements in the Odin empire to continue to send!

    By the time……Will evolve into a full-scale war! Year fieldA full-scale war for the purpose of annihilating the Byzantine Empire and unifying the mainland! ”

    Rheinhardt finally finished, his pale face had an excited blush, his lips were a little dry, and there was a hint of faint excitement in his worries.

    But when Rheinhardt looked at Shaar still like an indifferent expression, the young general's eyes flashed a slight disappointment.

    Instead, Green opened his mouth and the old Mad Dog's eyes flashed: "Rheinhardt, I think you are distracted, so what do you think we should do now?"

    Rheinhardt took another look at Shaar and found that Shaar still didn't speak. He sighed in secret and then straightened his waist and looked at Green: "Lord, I think we should prepare for it!" For the time being, the Red Snow Army ate the Corsican military area, digested such a large piece of land, and the tens of thousands of troops that had been compiled were not stable. Manninger was temporarily unable to split the troops to attack us at this time. But…I predict that the spring of next year will be a huge crisis we have to face! ! From now until the spring of next year, this time is enough for the Manniel to eat the Corsican military area to digest almost, and those soldiers can also be pressed. Then the next most important thing for him is to kill us! Because our location is too bad for Manninger. Moreover, according to my analysis, in the spring of next year, the Odin Empire may continue to add troops to the south to invade! What we will face is a full-scale war.

    Our current position, although in the northern part of the empire, away from Imperial Capital, so we avoided the war of civil war, able to breathe and trim, but next year, once the Odin Empire has added a large force to the south, our position will be their first blow. aims……Therefore, in the near future, we will face a huge test! ! I personally drafted a plan for preparation, and asked a few Lord to look over. ”

    After that, Rheinhardt took a paper roll from his sleeve and placed it on the table.

    Green glanced at Shaar and found that Shaar didn't mean to reach for it. Green frowned and could only reach out and grabbed it. After looking at his eyes, he nodded slightly: "Okay, this plan, I Negotiate with Lord Shaar and then make a final conclusion as soon as possible. In a word……The situation in the future is arduous, and the princes will try their best to serve the country! ”

    After that, Green touched Shaar in secret, and Shaar’s wandering eyes floated back, faintly saying: “Oh, is it over? Then, let's go. ”

    As soon as the meeting broke out, many of the general officers in the Chamber of Defence retired. Rheinhardt left for the last time. Before leaving, he looked at Shaar with a deep look. The brows were tightly screwed together before they were lost. Turned away and left.

    Green has been waiting for everyone to look away, only to look at Shaar around, old Mad Dog sullen: "Shaar, what the hell are you doing?! Why have you been obsessed with the past few days? You are always so confused, let the people under your watch, how to feel at ease? ! Don't forget, you are the coach, the backbone of everyone! ”

    Shaar "Oh," and his eyes are still a little bit stunned.

    Eh…Green sighed a long sigh: "I know that your physical injury has not recovered yet. You are in poor health. You have to rest more, but at least, in front of your people, you have to come up with something, even if it is to appease people. You It should also be refreshed."

    Shaar smiled a little: "Oh, I know it – nothing, everything is not there." I…Just a little tired body. ”

    Saar, Shaar turned and slowly walked out from the back door of the Chamber.

    The way he walked was still a bit awkward, and the pace looked a bit clumsy and sluggish. It seemed that the body still didn't recover well, and the action was somewhat inconvenient.

……

…………

    In fact, Shaar's mismatch has been going on for many days.

    Not only the subordinates and the subordinates and the generals will be aware of the boss's misconduct – the earliest and most obvious to Shaar's abnormal performance, naturally the closest person to Shaar: Adeline.

    Shaar was ready to get out of bed as early as ten days ago.

    Merlin's prosthetics and regeneratives are amazing, and Shaar's body recovers quickly.

    But after getting out of bed, Shaar faced a new problem: when he just got out of bed, he walked less than three steps and fell to the ground.

    It's not that his bones are not growing well – in fact his muscles and bones have completely re-growth.

    But…Because this repair and regeneration is based on the fact that Shaar's body circulation and balance were completely destroyed.

    It can be said that after the injury, Shaar is almost the same as a newborn baby.

    Although the skeletal muscles of the body have healed, he accidentally lost all the sense of balance and the mastery of the body.

    Even in the first two days, he had to walk for help – just like a toddler who was learning to walk.

    Almost everything in life, he has to learn to adapt. It took three days to go straight and countless heads, and Shaar could barely walk without someone to help.

    For this, many people are full of worries, especially Adeline, but also worried.

    Shaar looks so bad, even walking is not stable…Then it is equal to his former martial skill, which is completely abolished!

    An expert who used to be brave and powerful, and has a strong ability, suddenly became unstable even when he walked. He would take it off with a spoon–what is the difference with the waste?

    Especially for a warrior, it is better to die like this.

    Adeline's heart is worried, and many people are worried that Shaar can't bear such a huge blow.

    But the hell is…Shaar himself seems to have not shown even a little bit of distress and sadness!

    Even if he used to be able to rush to the enemy of the army, he would now wobble even a few more steps.

    However, from the beginning to the present, Shaar’s face showed no emotions such as disappointment and disappointment.

    It seems that, when I think about it, Shaar after the injury, he suddenly has a habit that he has never had before: daze.

    Yes, it is "daze."

    Shaar now often sits alone with his eyes, staring at something with his eyes, and then falls into a state of distraction. No one knows what he is thinking about.

    Even when you talk to him, you often say half of it, but this guy has a stunned eye, so he is so distracted.

    For a long time, everything he did was a careless look. Laziness is more serious than before.

    EvenOriginally, Adeline et al. guessed that after the injury was good, Shaar would definitely practice madly in order to restore his former strength as soon as possible.

    but in fact……After Shaar can get out of bed, there is only one item of his only physical activity every day: spread!

    When he started, he just tried to walk in the yard. After he had gone smoothly, he began to stroll around the courtyard of the entire city.

    At the end of the day, he began to walk out of the yard and spread along a circle outside the city gate.

    So he swayed his two arms, squatting his head, licking his legs, swaying, spreading in three steps – this looks no different from those in the country who ate and smashed the mud.

    The most important thing is that now Shaar seems to have lost something in his eyes – lost something called "sharp"!

    In the past, Shaar, even when he was injured, his eyes were still like an injured beast, full of wildness and restlessness, with a compelling edge!

    But now…His eyes and qi are even more harmless than the cooks in the city.

    It was like a tiger that had been pulled out of the minion, a hedgehog that had peeled off the thorn.

……

    In addition to spreading, Shaar's second favorite thing to do now is to be like a child. If you have nothing to do, just lie in a corner or a squat, staring at some flowers and plants, or something like ant insects. Not finished.

    Adeline once found that one afternoon, Shaar from after lunch until dinner, has been moving the chair sitting in the corner of the yard, with his hands on his chin, staring at the corner dazed-and then Adeline walked over and shouted at him three times before he found out that the guy had been staring, Just a bunch of weeds that have just grown out of the corner and two or three of unknown white flowers embellished above.

    At the time, Adeline was confused and asked what Shaar was looking at.

    And Shaar's answer made Adeline even more confused.

    The guy's answer is: "I want to tell you what I am looking at – but I don't know how to describe it to you, how to explain it to you. In fact, I only suddenly realized this kind of thing soon, and many of them have not figured out myself. So…I can't tell you, I can't tell you, you can't understand. ”

……After that day, if I had nothing to do, I moved to a chair and sat in the yard. Then I stared at the same thing and it was half a day. This is what Shaar does most often.

    Even the guards in the city gate couldn't help but guess privately. Our Lord won't be hurt too much and hurt his head.

    There is even a guard who said that he had a distant relative's child. When he was riding, he fell down his head and landed first. Then he became a stupid one-night look, but it was quite like Lord’s now. A few similarities…

    The most worrying thing is Adeline.

    Adeline also worried that Shaar would be because he became a waste person and he was self-defeating. She tried to inspire Shaar to cheer up, but without saying a word, Shaar interrupted her with a smile.

    "You can rest assured that I am not the situation you think, I am fine, very good…Only some things are slowly and slowly understood. I can't explain it now. When I really understand it, I can tell you. Now, I haven't understood it myself. ”

    Understanddo not understand……Anyway, Adeline didn't understand.

    However, when Shaar said this, it seemed that the mind was so awake, it seemed that it should be fine, and Adeline was relieved.

……

…………

    After the military conference, Shaar slowly left under the watchful eyes of Green's worries, then returned to the back, casually wearing a robes, and went out of the back door to the city street.

    It was already late in the afternoon.

    Shaar draped an ordinary linen robes, lazily scattered on the street and walking with a deep foot. He has not been trimmed recently, his hair is messy, and his beard has been born. When I came out like this, no one even looked at him, and no one even recognized it. This handsome guy with a big head is the Lord Lord in the city.

    Shaar has been walking away from the two streets of Chengshoufu. There is a small square with four or five tall poplar trees next to it, and some children are playing around the big trees.

    It is not far from the gates on the east side, and we can see that there are occasional soldiers who are patrolling the streets.

    Shaar stopped and walked slowly to a tree, looking for a quick stone to sit down, a long sigh of relief, and then for a moment, he stared at a pile of squirming ants under the tree. Desperately stunned…

    When you look at it, you can see that the sun is setting.

    The people in the square gradually became scarce, but Shaar felt that he was still sitting on the stone with his hands on his chin.

    At this time, suddenly an old voice sounded: "Hey, what are you looking at?"

    Shaar didn't look back and said casually: "What?"

    The old voice behind him smiled: "I have stood here for two quarters of an hour. When others are gone, I am watching you still staring at the roots…What are you looking at? What is the beauty of this tree root? ”

    Shaar took a breath and wiped the nose out of his nose at random, muttering: "Ant…root……Very nice. ”

    The old voice behind him seemed to smile, and then Shaar saw a tall, gray-skinned old man, squatting beside him, shoulder to shoulder with himself, and even his posture was similar, usually with hands supporting With the chin, the old man who was kneeling beside him smiled at Shaar sideways. "Is it really good?" I will also watch it with you. Boy, you are talking about it, how is it a good idea? ”

    Shaar glanced at this guy…The appearance of this old man is quite a bit like out of the ordinary. When he wants to be young, he should be the kind of beautiful man who can be fascinated. But…No matter how beautiful the man is, this age of seventy and eighty is already ruined. The Old Man's eyes are full of wrinkles, one layer at a time, the chin is pointed, and the skin seems to have some unhealthy dull appearance.

    But the eyes are bright and surprising.

    Shaar only looked at him, and he took a lazy look back and continued to look at the creeping ant on the trunk: "Good looks are good-looking, what else to explain? If you understand it naturally, I think he looks good, you can't read it, even if I explain it, it is a waste of saliva. ”

    The old man stunned, but then he smiled: "Not bad! There is some truth in talking about this kid! Understand is to understand, if you don't understand, you still don't understand it. Yes, that's the truth. ”

    Then he stopped talking. He just stared down and stared at the roots with Shaar. The two of them sat on the stone, one on the ground, shoulder to shoulder, and kept watching.

    Until the sun fell, and night fell, there was no more pedestrians in the square, leaving only the old and the young, as if they were somewhat surprised and still staring at the roots.

    Finally, Shaar *** eyes, took the lead to stand up.

    The old man also stood up and yelled at Shaar: "Don't watch?"

    "The sun is going down, it’s so dark, what do you think?"Shaar snorted, and there seemed to be some unsatisfactory: "Unfortunately…If I can go on for a little longer, maybe I can understand more. ”

    This old man hēi hēi smiled: "You kid, is it a ghost, or really understand what?"

    Shaar dismissed the other person with a disdainful look, and the expression seemed to be very disdainful that the other person actually asked this idiotic question.

    "What did you see?"The old man suddenly became a color.

    "Saw……ourselves. ”Shaar answered with a serious answer.

    PersonalThe old man laughed happily: "Nonsense, we both watched an afternoon tree and ants, how can we see ourselves?"

    Shaar shook his head: "It's yourself."

    The old man narrowed his eyes, as if the eyes were flashing with strange light: "Oh? Do you listen carefully? ”

    I…I don't know how to say it, I only understand a little, I still don't want to understand. ”Shaar sighed. He thought hard and slowly said: "The ants live on the big trees, we live in this world. Therefore, we are ants, this world is a big tree. ”

    "Hmph!"Just think of this? That is no stranger. ”The old man is faint.

    Shaar *** *** nose, thought for a moment, continued: "There are ants on the big tree, we have hair on the body. Ants will die and their hair will grow and fall off…Therefore, we are also big trees ourselves. ”

    Saar, Shaar raised his hand and pointed around: "Look, all the trees here, all the grass, all the flowers…The moss on the house, the vine, and the wild dog…Rats in the garbage dump in the corner, bed bugs…Even the woods outside the city, mountains, rivers…Everything……We are all this, it's all ourselves. In fact, they are all the same. Well, yes, it’s the same, everything is the same. So…The big tree is me, the ant is me, everything is 'I'. Eh…I almost thought of it so much. ”

    Shaar looked at the old man in front of him, his face calm and gentle.

    The old man suddenly had his eyes shining, his face changed dramatically, and he suddenly laughed a few times: "Good! well said! You really understand it! Haha! I thought you were a little madman, and I will accompany you all the time…Hahahaha! very good! God bless! I actually found a little genius like you in this place! ”

    The old man suddenly came up with a grab of Shaar's shoulder: "How old are you? Ask for name? Have you studied martial skill yet? Is there a master? Who is your master? Tell me quickly…Ah, no! I don't have to ask! Because even if you have a master, you can kick him directly! Starting today, you are my apprentice! I am your teacher! Hahaha! luck It’s luck! I actually met a little freak like you here! Hahahahaha! ! ! ”

    Looking at the old man suddenly excited and excited, Shaar was grabbed by the other side, unable to break away, can only smile and swear his own eyes, then calmly smiled: "That…Now it’s my turn to ask you a question…"

    He stared at the old man and asked in a serious question: "Excuse me…Do you have any problems? ”

    Old man: "………"

    The two guys looked at each other, staring at each other, looking at each other for a long time, the old man suddenly laughed: "But it, I am so happy, happy that even if you hit me, you can ignore it." Kid!My old man has seen you, you just want to run and can't run away…Well, are you living in this city? Just right, I am here to do something boring and boring, how can I delay a few days to go…"

    When the old man said it, suddenly it seemed to suddenly wake up to something, looked up and looked at the darkness of the sky, and patted his head hard: "Oh, it's awful!" It’s already so late! ! Hell! I am so ecstasy, I have delayed everything! Bad…Eh…

    He took one of Shaar's arms and strode to the street: "I came here a long way, to meet an old friend…My old friend is a mad woman, my temper is very strange, but the skill is powerful…It is also comparable to Father! This time I heard that she had collected her son, and her son had to marry again. She had sent me an invitation for many years. Although we have never been interested in it, we have never been acquainted with each other. Give her a face. Oh, it’s also a boring thing to say. If you don’t look at the old friends for many years, I’m too lazy to run this way, but thank you, if I don’t come here, I won’t meet it. To you such a little genius little freak! Hahahaha! ”

    Shaar was dragged by him. After listening to the Old Man's words, the more he listened to the expression, the more eccentric, suddenly stopped and stood, pointing to Old Man: "You…What do you mean by 'boring bad things', is the date of your old friend's son to hold a wedding? Your old friend is a mad woman with a bad temper but a very powerful person? ”

    The old man gave him a look: "Not bad…What do you ask for this? ”

    Shaar sighed and pointed at his nose: "That's so clever, the 'boring bad thing' you said is my wedding. And I, unfortunately, is the son of your crazy friend…"
